yes, the one that has flown the line less than 10% of his rep tenure and somehow, escaped discipline for his latest infraction. Hmmm...wonder why that was? Could it be that the Company was thrilled that he remained in his current position on the MEC? Hmmm...

Several reps no-show'd, one was flying and one left after the meeting started in order to break the quorum.
What a clown show....rumor is that some of the reps are not getting the full survey data, the NC is not responsive to the MEC and no one is leading.
Why are you bringing discredit to the union leadership? I went to the MEC meeting today and this situation came up.

A rep called a special meeting. Nobody was told what that special meeting was about. A quorum was lost and the meeting adjourned. Everything was handled by the book.

The reps who did attend thought nothing about it. In fact they said they have no hard feelings regarding the rep who called the meeting. But here you are spreading rumors.

Post like yours cause division. The company is cheering pilots like you on.

that’s what proxies are for…?

Yep. Surprise surprise another failed rumor out of the SM. Thought that was created for the "common sense" folk. They're more like JFs than ever.

There is a lot of misinformation that can be verified with a little research. First, the original statement that only 1 rep was flying is a bit misleading. There were multiple reps on trips. So, if they weren't actively flying, is the suggestion that they should have given up crew rest to attend this meeting?

About the statement above from the MEC meeting. A single rep can not call a special meeting. That is addressed in the policy manual. Also, the email that came out notifying us about the special meeting had a link to the agenda, so stating that nobody knew what the meeting was about is false unless the reps don't read the emails that are sent to all of us.

I’m sure there was another rep. I probably misheard or they misspoke. It is inconsequential.

Yes, everyone knows the agenda but probably not the details.

I still fail to see the high crimes and misdemeanors.
